I don't know why so many DDG users use '!g' unless they're using Edge or just aren't aware that Chromium and Firefox both let you create an arbitrary keyword like 'g' for a search provider, which is a lot easier to type.

Some of the other bang commands do look useful, though.

Guess I have a "localized" deformation as french keyboard include a ! character accessible without any key modifier, so it's actually pretty straightforward to use.

That won’t take you through DDG’s anonymizing proxy though.

For me, !g just redirects to a normal Google search.
